Insider selling pressure hit NSSC hard this week. Founder, Chairman, and CEO Richard Soloway filed two large sell trades on August 28. Combined, he offloaded $16.5M worth of shares over just two days — 379,529 shares on August 27 at $34.50 and a further 95,471 shares on August 26 at $35.93.
The sell-off doesn't stop there. Director Donna Anne Soloway — also of the founding family — filed sales totalling $1.73M over the same two days. The family's combined disposals add up to roughly $18.3M in stock sold within 48 hours.
Across the Atlantic, LLOY CFO William Chalmers filed a $12.8M share sale on August 28. He sold over 8.4 million Lloyds shares at £1.12 on August 27. It follows a pattern — Lloyds COO Ron Van Kemenade sold nearly $1M worth of shares back in June. Multiple C-suite executives selling in the same year is worth watching.
On the buying side, UBS-backed Kuaishou Technology saw a $37.9M institutional sell while Ranhill Utilities attracted a $37.8M purchase from Prudential. Suzhou West Deane's Chairman and CEO Sheng Jian Hua bought $2.9M of shares in his own company — a bullish signal from the top.
The NSSC family cluster stands out most. Coordinated insider selling from the CEO and a director at nearly identical prices suggests a planned disposal, not panic. Investors should monitor upcoming earnings guidance closely.
